I've looked into swapping out the tensioners, but I'm not positioned to pull the engine. IIRC, it can be done with the engine in the car. So... ~$500 for the 3 tensioners and some 'while I'm in there' parts. Maybe in the fall, as it's baking right now.

Thanks, fellas.
The most challenging part of replacing the chain tensioners is pulling the a/c comp to get to the one on top of the motor. It’s a very simple job overall. The Variocam tensioners on the other hand are a different story. I’m going to be replacing my chain tensioners this fall/winter.
